Npm installation silently installs a package-owned Claude skill at \`~/.claude/skills/lsproxy-cli\`. That skill enables an AI agent to invoke this LSP/refactoring CLI, which can start configured LSP servers and write their workspace edits when the agent uses it. No concrete exfiltration, remote payload execution, or foreign broad control-plane mutation was found. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-07-12T07:50:17.473Z - **Finished:** 2026-07-12T07:52:03.754Z - **Download time:** 778 ms - **Static scan time:** 184 ms - **AI review time:** 105318 ms - **Total time:** 106281 ms ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Npm installation silently installs a package-owned Claude skill at \`~/.claude/skills/lsproxy-cli\`. That skill enables an AI agent to invoke this LSP/refactoring CLI, which can start configured LSP servers and write their workspace edits when the agent uses it. No concrete exfiltration, remote payload execution, or foreign broad control-plane mutation was found. - **Trigger:** npm postinstall; subsequently, an AI agent reads the installed skill or a user explicitly runs \`lsproxy\`. - **Impact:** Introduces an unprompted agent capability/instruction surface and can modify project files when invoked, but source inspection found no malicious chain. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, skillit-postinstall.cjs, skills/lsproxy-cli/SKILL.md, dist/connect.js, dist/session.js, dist/apply.js, dist/config/adapters/claude-code.js, dist/config/adapters/codex.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-07-12T07:52:03.754Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** postinstall copies a package-owned AI-agent skill; runtime executes configured LSP commands and applies guarded workspace edits. - **Rationale:** The package performs a real postinstall write to a user-wide AI-agent skill directory, warranting a warning under the lifecycle policy. The copied content and runtime source are package-aligned and show no concrete malicious behavior, so a publish block is not supported. - **Files touched:** package.json, skillit-postinstall.cjs, skills/lsproxy-cli/SKILL.md, ~/.claude/skills/lsproxy-cli, dist/connect.js, dist/session.js, dist/apply.js, dist/config/adapters/claude-code.js, ~/.claude/settings.json, dist/config/adapters/codex.js, ~/.codex/config.toml ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for:** \`package.json\` executes \`skillit-postinstall.cjs\` during \`postinstall\`., \`skillit-postinstall.cjs\` recursively copies \`skills/lsproxy-cli\` into \`~/.claude/skills/lsproxy-cli\` without user invocation., The dropped \`SKILL.md\` instructs AI agents to use a CLI that can run configured LSP server commands and apply returned workspace edits., \`dist/config/adapters/claude-code.js\` can modify \`~/.claude/settings.json\`, but only through explicit \`lsproxy config export claude-code\`. - **Evidence against:** No network client, external endpoint, credential harvesting, eval, dynamic module loading, or binary payload found., Postinstall copies only packaged Markdown; its only rewrite substitutes the package \`npx\` prefix with its local bin name., Dropped skill content documents refactoring and warns users to use \`--dry-run\`; no prompt override, data-exfiltration, or stealth instruction found., \`dist/config/adapters/codex.js\` is explicitly read-only for \`~/.codex/config.toml\`., Runtime child-process use launches user-configured LSP servers or the package proxy, consistent with the CLI purpose. ## Public findings ### 1.
